There were so many phones’ ringing that I thought I was in some orchestra session, and the amount of legs galloping in every direction made me think that this wasn’t your typical sunny afternoon either. Officer Football, surrounded by five, was dangling his arms around like an octopus. I was on the floor, against the wall, scratching my neck. Above me was a clock making a rusty ticking sound. I looked at it and frowned; it gave me an extra layer of headache. I glanced to my side and saw a vacant seat.

Just as my bum went down, a baby’s cry pierced my ear. I swallowed and glanced to my side. Angeline came tip toeing toward me with her newborn nested under her arms.

‘Oh my God are you all right Velvet?’ The baby went quiet when it saw me. And then burst out crying.

‘I’m, fine thank you.’

‘Let me look at,’ she reached for my neck, ‘that scratch.’ She caressed the baby’s head with her right and mine with her left. ‘You need to get this checked out sweetie.’ I brushed her hand away.

‘Thanks.’ The chaos around me was too much: the rusted ticking, the sea of chatter, the baby’s holler, and now her, Angeline’s soothing voice, trying to assure me that everything will be fine. I closed my eyes and saw the leprechaun waving at me, HAPPY FUEL HAPPY CAR.

‘Let’s go there,’ she pointed at a room. ‘There’s water.’

We were in one of the cubicles. It had a glass wall, a desk with a computer, a water dispenser, and the most important thing of all, a door. As soon as it closed, every bit of sound, that gave me a headache, disappeared. It’s not to say that Angelina and her baby’s voice were God’s violin.

She bobbed the baby in her arms. ‘Any idea what’s going on out there?’ I walked over to the dispenser and cracked out a cup. I wonder if I should just tell her, say, “Hey, you know your dead husband? We were fucking behind your back.” I pressed the lever.

The cup shook in my hand. ‘Truck exploded.’ I sipped. ‘Collision.’

‘There-there,’ the baby went quiet. ‘That’s a good Zoe.’ She leaned toward the window and peeked. ‘Do you know when James’s coming?’

A mouthful of water, which now tasted of egg yolk, swirled around my mouth. I swallowed. ‘Excuse me?’ She looked at me in a way that made my bones go cold. Please, for the love of God don’t tell me this was happening.

‘I haven’t heard anything from him.’ My finger dipped into the icy water. I took another sip. I looked at the baby in her arms and felt sick. They didn’t tell her that he was…was this possible? My lips opened – stayed open – closed. My chest sunk toward the floor. The door was my only salvation. I need to get out of this place.

‘Sweetie,’ she said. ‘You look a bit white.’ I was being punished for what I’ve done; someone up there wanted me whipped emotionally.
